Chapter 177: Inquiry
Now that Huang's daughter is married, the man is lying on the bed, and the silver in her hand is gone, so it is not an exaggeration to say that she is now a frightened bird.
Therefore, even if Qin Xun is not polite, just perfunctory words are enough for the Huang family to feel at ease.
"It's okay, don't move, it's cold, you're about to give birth!" With a smile and greetings, he walked to the side of the kang, reached out and touched the purple mattress on the kang, which was warm and soft, very comfortable.
"Oh, I didn't expect Qin Xun to be able to live so well, it's really a blessing, and your mother is also a blessing."
Qin Xun didn't say anything, and looked at Huang with a light smile, but she didn't put her feet up.
"Second aunt, you said that you are really, why did you go to the county government in a daze, if we didn't go today, I'm afraid it would be difficult for you to get out well. Who is trying to harm you and instigating you to go to the county office? ”
"Huh?" Huang was shocked, pondered Qin Xun's words carefully, and repeated in his mouth: "Who harmed me?" Who encouraged me to go to the county office? ”
Seeing that she didn't understand, Qin Xun smiled and said, "Second aunt, don't worry, let's think slowly; You go to the county office early in the morning, you must be hungry, eat something to cushion your stomach first. ”
At this time, it was already past noon, and Qin Xun had already eaten it just now, so he ordered Qinggu and the others to get some food for the Huang family.
Huang Shi was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, but he was flustered before and didn't notice it.
When the maids came up with three dishes and a bowl of rice one after another, Huang's hand holding the chopsticks was a little shaky.
Looking at a pair of chopsticks and a bowl of rice, Huang smiled politely at Qin Coriander and asked, "Qin Coriander, don't you eat it?" ”
"I've eaten it, second aunt please!"
In this case, Huang Shi was not polite, and he didn't care about talking when he picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and only the sound of the dishes and chopsticks touching and chewing was left in the room.
Qin Xun stroked the hand warmer in his hand and always looked at Huang lightly.
When Huang finished eating, the maid brought tea and took away the things on the table, Huang was completely comfortable and relieved, she was even a little drowsy, and her brain was a mess.
Therefore, for Qin Xun's questioning, Huang almost answered all questions, although it was a little chaotic, but he didn't think much about it, and it was all instinctive.
She told Qin Xun that someone came to her first, saying that she could learn from Su Lao Er's time to go to the county government to complain, Xiao Chenyu was a person, and the county magistrate would not do anything to him, but, for the sake of face, Xiao Chenyu would invite the Huang family back to entertain her, and when he left, he would definitely send a lot of items again like Su Lao Er did.
"I'm a timid person, I didn't want to go, and it's just a small talk to talk to your second uncle when I go back. It's just that your second uncle has to ask me to go to the county office. ”
When Huang said this, his mind cleared up a little, he looked at Qin Xun a little shyly, and hurriedly said: "If it weren't for your second uncle's instigation, by the way, there is also Tao Niang, Tao Niang's woman has also been saying that there is no food at home, it is useless, so I have to come once." ”
Qin Xun pondered for a moment, sighed, and said, "The grievances and grievances of our two families are not clear, and I don't want to mix more. To be honest, if the second aunt came to the door directly, I really wouldn't help the second aunt. ”
"Then now" Huang was a little anxious, and his newly sobered mind became cloudy again: "There is really nothing to eat at home, for the sake of relatives, let's help a little!" ”
Qin Xun smiled, and first appeased the Huang family, so that she should not be in a hurry.
Then, she seemed very curious and said, "Actually, I heard something before, I don't know if it's true. ”
"What's the matter?" Huang's gossip heart prevailed.
"My family went out to buy, and I heard rumors that a gang of bandits went to Fushui Town, and they got some food and twenty or thirty taels of silver, but the family said that they had lost more than one hundred taels of silver. The gang of robbers got drunk in a brothel and couldn't help but speak out. ”
Huang's first reaction was to hurriedly ask, "Have these people been caught?" ”
"Naturally, I escaped!"
"That" Huang couldn't say anything, and it was impossible for the old men of the county government to chase people for their family's idea.
Seeing that the Huang family still hadn't thought it through, Qin Xun asked, but actually reminded: "Second uncle, how much silver has your family lost?" ”
How much silver?
Now the Huang family finally returned to the topic, but looked at Qin Xun in a daze and couldn't speak.
"Where do I know how much silver? Your second uncle never told me how much silver he had, and all that silver was in Tao Niang's room, and I couldn't see it. ”
"Tao Niang is just a concubine, how can she go past your aunt?"
Qin Xun frowned and was dissatisfied, and seemed to be very sympathetic to the Huang family: "Besides, who took this silver away, I'm afraid it's hard to say!" ”
Huang also frowned and thought, although she never liked Tao Niang, but she also regarded her as her own family, after all, she had given birth to a child for the Su family, so she never thought that it would be her who stole the silver, even now, she still didn't believe it, but she already had doubts in her heart.
"Second aunt, there's one more thing I don't understand. Why did the second aunt have no children since she had a cousin? ”
The Huang family couldn't raise her head in the Su family, and the big reason was that she only had one daughter, so she had to endure Su Lao Er and Tao Niang being greasy and crooked in front of her.
"I don't know, I've taken a lot of medicine, and I haven't taken a lot of home remedies, but there is no movement." Huang also sighed, thought about it and said: "Tao Niang has not moved for more than a year when she entered the door, I still thought at that time, could it be the problem of the man in my family?" ”
One year is enough for Su Lao Er to be a little tired, so he discussed with the Huang family, this peach girl is not a child who can give birth, so he should marry a good one and come back.
But the conditions of the family to raise a concubine are still reluctant, and it is a little difficult to raise two, so the Huang family proposed to let Tao Niang out, add some silver and send it back to her mother's house.
A month later, before they could find a new woman who could give birth, Tao Niang was pregnant, which made Su Lao Er very happy.
After giving birth to a daughter in October, Su Lao Er was not angry, at least it proved that Su Lao Er can give birth, it doesn't matter if this one is a daughter, the next son will become, if Tao Niang can't do it, then marry a woman and come back to give birth.
I don't know why, today's Huang family is in full swing, drinking the prepared fragrant drink, eating delicious pastries, following Qin Coward's questioning, and telling all the details of the family.
After listening to this, Qin Xun said again: "Uncle, I have a female doctor from Dancheng at home, who specializes in seeing women's diseases, or ask her to help you see why you can't give birth?" ”
Huang opened his mouth wide: "I, I'm old, why do you still look at this?" Even if I look at it, it's useless, your second uncle is paralyzed."
